Thanks for your attention Wednesday -


Thanks for your attention to the Sheriff's department this past Wednesday with part two of the safety and security training. I know it was a heavy meeting and items that are not the best to have to discuss, but unfortunately it was good knowledge to have. Many great questions were asked and items to improve were brought up.
